I got to see my second comet in a year, comet lemmons is just barely visible in the darkest part of town. I’m glad we had clear skies so I could see it.

✨Found a favorite going thru photos from our Lapland northern lights camp roadtrip. Started in Rovaniemi, drove Sweden looking for clear sky, ended up driving the whole coast Bodø to Skibotn, thru Alta to Nourgam, up to Vardø, down to Utsjoki, inari & back to Rovaniemi! We saw aurora most nights✨

Had fun at the 29th annual condor release day at Vermillion Cliffs National Monument for public lands day. Was worried the event would be canceled but it all worked out. Only got to see #1254 leave the pen though but look forward to spotting them all in the wild soon.✨🪽

From hikes around Cedar Breaks last weekend. I’d been out of town for a while so no time for hiking or camping.

Very sad to learn about the loss of the historic north rim lodge. It was one of my favorite places to visit. I’m thankful no one has been injured or worse, but still sad about the north rim structures. Currently worrying about the white sage fire as well that is huge and very close to town.

✨day 3 of camping and hiking. This one really pushed the limits of my heat tolerance, so I’ll come back when it cools down.✨

Jamie @primarytrainer.bsky.social · 06/07/2025
✨Back again this time by myself: the weather is perfect yet the park seems emptier than other holiday weekends. A bout 5 miles yesterday and 7.5 hikes today. One more big hike left before I head home if I can manage to get out before it gets too hot.✨

Jamie @primarytrainer.bsky.social · 30/06/2025
✨Was feeling a huge lack of confidence about hiking on my own so decided to camp at Zion and do the Narrows. It’s the first time I’ve done the hike to big springs alone. My timing was good that most of the hike I was by myself to enjoy everything. I really hope to do the top down eventually✨

Sunday’s hike before the wind changed direction and it got to smoky. The weather was perfect but due to the smoke I didn’t complete the hike. I hope to go back before summer ends to finish it. Really amazing Cretaceous rock textures and an awesome arch.

✨probably my best attempt at an aurora photo from the weekend’s solar storm! I was super lucky to find an area with clear skies during the peak lights. The next two nights were overcast for most of the region. I can’t express how much this makes me appreciate dark sky areas 🌌

Jamie @primarytrainer.bsky.social · 02/06/2025
✨It was too hot to go hike yesterday before the storm came in, so just went on a walk at Horseshoe Bend, day dreamed about exploring Glen Canyon without the water, and celebrated #dinosaurday by going on a scavenger hunt to find Dino tracks around town! 🦖

✨more photos from Monday’s hike while I debate with myself about this weekend’s hikes, the last long hike opportunity before summer session at school begins😅 Jolley looks like it would be a fun canyon if I could get more practice in and make more canyoneering friends eventually🤞

✨Random photos from Saturday evening’s hike. I’d like to come back when there is more water present but I do appreciate that there was no one else on the trail that evening.🏃‍♀️

I can’t get enough condors! Here’s another condor at observation point from today’s hike 🥹 I couldn’t see its tags so I’m not sure which one it was; but we had two up there today. Such beautiful and wonderful birds. If I got to come back in another life, I’d like to be a condor✨

✨1 year later. My favorite aurora photos from the May 10-11 2024 geomagnetic event. If we ever get so lucky again, I hope to travel to somewhere properly dark to watch it✨

I didn’t have any luck at the quarry today, but I got to see some really awesome dinosaur tracks found there up close and talk to many amazing people. I love this place. I really hope the dinosaur footprints can be saved🐾🦖 and I forgot to reapply my sunblock so I got a bad sunburn on my left arm😭
